熟人内推=猎头 > LinkedIn 学长学姐内推 >= 网投 > 一亩三分地内推
简历投递顺序和周期
1. 列出所有想去的公司名字
2. 按照公司拿offer难度和面试难度进行梯度分级(先上岸把心态调整好相当重要)
3. 每个级别的公司,取最想去为基准进行排序,开始搜集投递方式
4. 有内推,就立马找内推,如果没有熟人内推,找LinkedIn.1point3acres
5. 由于LinkedIn和一亩三分地回复一般会很慢很慢,要看这个公司的内推和网投是否冲突,不冲突可以先投,否则先等3天
6. 如果实在找不到内推,就网投
7. 每周花一个特定时间,重复1~6的工作,不要因为拿的面试多就放松了投小公司,上岸是找工初期首要目标!
8. 对尚未放出职位的公司标记LinkedIn提醒,每天刷一刷,如果有新职位,立马找内推(速度!!)
历时2个多月的刷题和无数拒信后,楼主终于转专业上岸了,写一些关于BQ的经验回报地里吧。关于我认为的BQ问题的潜台词,我给您翻译翻译,这些BQ到底在问什么?现在BQ越来越重要了,我碰到两次面试,有一轮就是只问BQ,连续40分钟BQ快问快答,人都要疯掉了,说得口干舌燥。这里写一些常见的BQ吧,基本属于必考感觉。
介绍一个你最喜欢的项目?介绍下简历?介绍下自己?
翻译:有没有看职位要求?说说职位要求要找什么人?你是这样的人么?介绍一个你最符合这个职位要求的项目,最后强调你是good fit
你最大的缺点/失败?
翻译:你一个无伤大雅的小缺点/失败是什么?你从以前的哪个项目知道自己有这个缺点/失败?知道以后学到了什么教训?在后面哪个项目中吸取了这个教训,做了什么,取得了什么结果?
你最大的优点?
翻译:我知道你很牛,你哪个特质最符合这个职位的要求,并且在最后强调你的某某优点让你是一个good fit for this position
为什么选我们这个公司?
翻译:公司的mission是什么?我的career goal和你们公司的mission完美契合;职位的要求是什么?我的背景和能力和这个职位的要求完美契合。最后强调你是good fit
怎么知道这个职位的?
翻译:如实回答就行,我一般都说career fair和公司的工程师聊了聊,关键是最后要再重复一遍,据我了解,这个职位是干啥或者需要啥,我以前也在做这个或者有相关的技能,所以good fit.--
队友/同事不干活/很难相处咋办?
翻译:你有没有经常和队友/同事主动沟通?你愿不愿意为了团队,帮队友/同事分担一些工作?能不能以非常职业的方式解决这个问题?
队友/同事不同意你的观点咋办?
翻译:你有没有自己花一些时间做一个数字化(quantitative)的比较?有没有向队友/同事提交一个详细的报告或者比较(report/strong case)来说服ta?会不会有效的沟通?
你怎么定义成功?
翻译:一般我都说达到自己制定的目标就算成功,这样容易说;那就可以理解为你有没有为自己制定目标?你的目标是啥?你现在完成的怎么样?未来在这个公司想怎么发展自己?(develop tech stack,gain more domain knowledge,see myself in postion of senior engiener in xx years).--
被安排了一个很难的任务咋办?
翻译:你会不会和你的老板沟通?你会不会和你的同事沟通?你会不会提出合理的要求?能不能以非常职业的方式解决这个问题?
任务的due被提前了咋办?有没有身背数个deadline的经历?
翻译:你是怎么管理你的时间的?比如日历上设置好项目,还有提醒;你会不会根据工作的优先级安排你的时间?你会不会为了项目组的整体利益考虑(best interest of my team),舍弃一些个人利益?比如为了毕设,自己的考试就不投入太多时间;会不会和别人沟通寻找解决方案?如果你是组长,你知道due提前了会不会采取措施?比如立刻开会,重新安排这个项目后面的任务和时间节点。
为什么你是xx专业,却想做sde/ds/mle?
翻译:你之前哪段项目/实习经历做了有关sde/ds/mle的啥?你产生了啥影响,取得了啥结果?你是不是很享受你的产出?(是,所以我想转)
